    If anybody is can they check this out for me (must be cable not mmds)

    run regedit and go here

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Service\EPG\

    and write down what headend is ....
    what geoid is ....
    what digitalCableConfig is ....

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Settings\ProgramGuide\

    and write down what strlocation is ....
    what strProviderId is ....


    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Settings\TvConfig\

    and write down what fHasDVB is ....
    what fHasSTB is .......
    what iVideoSource is ........

    not using it at the minute, but was previously,
    i dont have vista installed anymore so cant check it for you.

    it uses the same data as mce anyhow, and is fully configurable from within vista mce.
    are you having a particular problem or just need the data?

    sorry for not replying sooner, I eventually got the dublin ntl digital tv guide to come up

    not on my htpc atm though so dont have the regedit changes in front of me, it's hit and miss as it doesnt always work

    geoid is 009 from what i can remember and so is strlocation)
    and headed is 804000 (or 8040000) (same as provider id i think)


    STB is 2
    and videosource is 2
